For some people, one of the most horrible experiences that they can have is to find a garment that they absolutely adore only to see those three terrifying words sitting there on the tag... "Dry Clean Only."  Those three little words don't have to strike fear into your heart, however; there are a variety of ways that you can get around the need for dry cleaning (or at the very least greatly reduce the frequency of your trips to the dry cleaner.)

Of course, it helps if you understand exactly what dry cleaning is and how it works... this can help you to see how it benefits certain materials to be dry cleaned and will also assist you in figuring out whether you can get your dry clean only clothes clean in some other way.

See all 4 photos What Dry Cleaning Is Dry cleaning is a method for cleaning clothes that uses an organic solvent instead of water, with the most common solvent used being tetrachloroethylene.  A number of different solvents have been used since the dry cleaning process was first created in the middle of the 19th century; early versions used kerosene or gasoline, though the danger of using these chemicals resulted in a number of explosions in dry cleaning establishments.

This changed after World War I, when dry cleaners began looking for less dangerous ways to get clothes clean.  Tetrachloroethylene became popular as a cleaning solvent in the late 1930's due to its stability, how gentle it is on most fabrics, and the fact that it's completely nonflammable.  The more common name for tetracloroethylene is "perc", which is a shortened form of its alternate name, perchloroethylene. you can wow gold kaufen from online shop with safe transaction.

Why Clothes Are Labeled “Dry Clean Only” A number of materials simply can't be washed in standard detergent and water as you would put into a washing machine; either the chemicals in the detergent would damage the material, or the water would cause the material to shrink or otherwise be negatively affected.  Clothing made of these materials will often be labeled "dry clean only", informing people who own those garments that they might damage them if they put them in the washing machine with their other clothes.

Of course, not all dry clean only clothing is going to be severely damaged if it isn't sent to a dry cleaner... some materials do quite well with hand washing, but are labeled "dry clean only" because some consumers are more likely to buy clothes that they must have dry cleaned than clothes that have to be washed by hand.  Still other clothing items are made of materials which are generally not recommended to be placed in a washing machine but that can be washed under certain conditions.
